چکیده

A 38-year-old man presented with 2 months' history of a hoarseness and aphthous stomatitis. Image diagnosis showed that he had saccular-type aneurysms of the aortic arch, right subclavian artery, and infrarenal abdominal aorta. Simultaneous total arch replacement, including reconstruction of the right subclavian artery and replacement of the infrarenal abdominal aorta, was performed. Pathologic specimen of each aneurysmal wall revealed that intima and the majority of the medial layer were absent. Chronic inflammatory process was detected in the adventitia that was compatible with diagnosis of Behçet's disease.

Dilated aberrant right subclavian artery (arteria lusoria), as a rare cause of dysphagia in a patient with abdominal aortic aneurysm.

A rare case of a 70 years old man with dysphagia secondary to compression of the oesophagus by dilated aberrant right subclavian artery (ARSA, Arteria lusoria) is presented. Contrast enhanced computed tomography of the mediastinum in our patient revealed this anomalous vessel arising from the aortic arch distal to the left subclavian artery which passed behind the esophagus as it traveled to th...

Anatomical Study of Subclavian Artery and Its Branches

Background: The branches of right and left subclavian arteries are important in conducting of blood to spinal cord, posterior cranial fossa, base of the neck, thyroid gland, wall of the thorax and abdomen. The routine use of internal thoracic artery as a conduit in coronary artery bypass grafting surgery requires appreciation of the anatomical variations of these vessels. So far, there is not a...
